On the last weekend of Mt Rose this season, we spent a fun day with Phil and @Tricia . At some point I see Phil speed up ahead like there was no slush in there and stop. I later realized he was taking pics. This is the better one of three pictures that he took of me (the worst had decent edge angle but a lot of banking ).

Anyways, I love my avatar because it reminds me of a lovely day in an amazing season. End of May, how cool is that ?

This was at Whistler/Blackcomb, Thanksgiving weekend, November 27th, 2016 at 2:30pm. The photo was taken with by Lady Salina or her brother (forgot name, sorry) near Jersey Cream. Pretty amazeballs early season conditions, though those were soft moguls rather than untracked.

Mine is explained in a remarkably similar way to @Chris Walker : Me and my boy on a good day. He and I had left his mother and sister behind for much of the day. He had skied (quite well) his first black diamond*. He insisted on riding the bus back to the car with me and we giggled and laughed the whole way back. The selfie was his idea.

*Something I had withheld for, literally, years, until he was ready. Something I still don't permit unless conditions are right. He is 6 in this photo. Will be 8 by first snow this winter.
